Lower the steering wheel to lowest position. Starting at the bottom carefully prise off the panel surround. A single screw is revealed that holds the dash panel in place. Last edited by kandlbarrett on Mon Jan 07, 2013 5:18 pm; edited 1 time in total

Thats rich coming from you!!
Milage in a pre plex will show on the dials to whichever is the greatest either on the new dials or ecu.
Basically if you ecu read 90k and new dials are 120k - it will show 120k
Again if the dials show 90k and the new dials show 40k - it will show 90k
Try and get lowest reading dials you can
Hopefully this solves it

#39: Re: mileometer Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 10:46 am ---- That's my daughter's car then; thank goodness as I am not sure I would want the problems that plex brings.
#40: Re: mileometer Author: Mattie-RS, Location: A Track near you ;)Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 10:51 am ---- I wouldnt even want to touch the electrics on a plex model
#41: Re: mileometer Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 1:03 pm ---- I thought it was just the plexed models that had the anti clocking feature, and pre-plexed showed whatever was saved in the cluster.
